On Thursday, Embraer Executive Jets delivered the 100th Phenom assembled at its Melbourne, Fla. facility, just three years after the first light jet rolled off the line there. The milestone aircraft also marked the 40th handover of a Signature Series Phenom 300 to NetJets. Registered as CS-PHF, the jet will be the seventh Phenom 300 to join NetJets’ European fleet; the fractional provider’s remaining 33 Phenoms are based in the U.S.
